Genetic Profiling and Performance Optimization in Elite Combat Sport Athletes: A Cross-Sectional Study Based on Total Genetic Score Analysis
Although PF athletes showed mixed aerobic/anaerobic genetic profiles, their training routines were primarily strength-oriented, suggesting a possible misalignment between genetic predispositions and their current training approach. These findings offer preliminary insights into the genetic characteristics of elite PF athletes and may inform future investigations into the potential role of genetic information in guiding training strategies.
